Gearbox frame horn swap / new IRS installation

Posted on

0 Comments

Due to a previously poorly aligned IRS conversion, where the frame horns had been removed the engine didn't sit squarely in the engine bay. Solution, remove the lot and start again.

Before that though, we souced a good OG rear section from Alan Schofield Ltd. Due the camper having a JMR 2110cc EFI engine, some strength upgrades were also planned.

The old weld on IRS conversion that was causing poor wheel tracking & camber will be replaced with the bolt in, adjustable IRS hardware. Shown here after plating for corrosion protection.
